Chances of flopping a set

The probability of being dealt a pocket pair are 1 in 16 (5.9%) and the chances of flopping a set or better with a pocket pair are 1 in 7.5 (11.8%). So then what is the probability of being dealt any pocket pair, and then flopping a set (or better) with it?

Re: Chances of flopping a set

5.9% * 11.8% = ~ .007 %

.7 hands out of every hundred hands

or 1.4 hands out of every two hundred, etc.
